Refugee Stigma
By Keren Tuch
There were many thought provoking events on last week in honour of Refugee Week, including the confronting SBS series Go Back To Where You Came From, discussed here and here.
One event I attended was a forum put on by the Ethnic Communities' Council of Victoria and Multicultural Arts Victoria which was titled Labels & Liabilities: When is a refugee no longer a refugee? This interesting question was addressed by three people who came here as refugees themselves; Mr. Kot Monoah, Ms. Nyadol Nyuon and Ms. Mmaskepe Sejoe. The refugees varied in age and backgrounds but were united on a few common issues.
The word refugee can have a positive meaning, although the only example the speakers referred to was the provision of services by the Australian government or other organisations. Otherwise, the label was a liability.
A label like refugee, asylum seeker or Jew places people in boxes and in turn affects how both the individuals view themselves, and how the 'others' perceive them. If a refugee kid is misbehaving, it is because he has post-traumatic stress disorder. If another kid is misbehaving, it's because he's naughty.
My high school years were full of debates as to whether I was an Australian Jew or a Jewish Australian, assuming one label was more defining of my identity than another. In reality, both labels only tell part of a story of who I am.
Ms. Nyuon described how being labelled created a stagnant identity for her. She recalled that when she was in high school she wanted to participate in the normal English class, but the principal thought he was doing her a favour by keeping her in English as a second language class, because she was a refugee. It was hard for her to shake the label that she thought stifled her personal growth.
It also deflated Ms. Nyuon's self esteem. When she was accepted into law school in Australia, she assumed it was because they pitied her refugee plight, and not because she has the same intellectual capacity as her Australian peers doing law.
Labels can also prevent integration into the wider community. Ms. Sejoe spoke of a yearning to belong to a community. It pains her when someone asks her where she is from, owing to her dark skin colour. She replies "Carlton", where she has lived for more than 20 years and feels connected to the community there. Unable to shake their curiosity, the typical follow up response is where are you really from? Community is where you are, even if it is a community of parents of school children in year two.
So when does a refugee stop becoming a refugee? It seems that it depends on to whom you ask the question to. If you ask a refugee, perhaps being called a refugee is initially useful to help access services in order to familiarize oneself with the community. However, there appears to be a turning point when it is useful to get rid of labels and stigmas in order to integrate and be accepted in the wiser community.
The Australian Jewish community is made up of a lot of 'refugees', and their descendants. It is incumbent upon us to accept the new refugees, acknowledge the positive contribution they make, and help them shed their label.
Keren Tuch is the Education Director of Jewish Aid Australia, which mobilises the Australian Jewish community in the pursuit of humanitarian relief and social justice for disadvantaged people in Australia and overseas, including Sudanese refugees in Melbourne and Sydney.

So much of this next year has been set in motion already. Heather and Scott haven't set a date yet but plan on being married in 2009, probably in the summer. I just finished my three classes and there isn't anything I need to take until summer so I don't have to take any classes until then. What a relief! Those three classes last semester took up every spare moment I had. I think the one I take this summer is online so that will help.
Reflecting on what I hope to do for myself this next year though, conflicts me. I have my list of 101 things to do in a 1001 days and I am making some progress on that. The list is very project oriented. A lot of the things I have on it are projects I have started and need to finish…………. I know many people are good at starting something and finishing it before they go on to the next project but I always seem to run out of something and go on to a new thing until I get the supplies I need to finish the project.
I saw several classes I would be interested in taking in High Amana. One is a collage class and the other is a cloth book class. They are Saturday/Sunday classes, one in March and one in April. That could be a possibility.
I have signed up to read the Bible in a year at church so hopefully I can keep on track with that.
I saw one group that has the goal of reading 52 books in 52 weeks. That might also be a possibility.
I still have my 101 projects to do in 1001 days to work on so there are plenty of things to do.

Tip 4: Relationship is Central
Take 20seconds and think about the person who most positively impacted you as a teenager.
(Stop cheating… stop reading & think)
Was it the music teacher who gave you confidence in your ability for the first time? A sports coach who encouraged you to keep going when you felt like giving up? A parent who didn't send you to a borstal, despite your behaviour? Was it the person who actually wanted an honest answer when they asked "how are you?"
I'd be willing to bet that the person who helped change your life had a good relationship with you. I mean when did we ever value the opinion of someone we didn't respect or who didn't take the time to truly know us?
In youth ministry we want young people to have a life-changing relationship with God through Jesus Christ. We want leaders to have solid relationships with one another, with young people, and with young people's parents. We want young people to have accountable relationships with their peers and their parents. We want the wider church body to have a positive relationship with the youth ministry.
Every meeting with a young person is an opportunity. To inspire them… to build their confidence… to make them laugh… to listen purposefully… to point them towards God's ways.
So let me offer some suggestions for how we might build relationships with teenagers (stolen & adapted from "Purpose Driven Youth Ministry" by Doug Fields).
R is for "Relational Approach" – have a serious conversation with a teenager at least once a month.
E is for "Encouragement" – praise good questions, answers, sincere sharing & their involvement.
L is for "Laughter" – pursue humour, smile (even when they goof it up); don't let your church group feel like a funeral.
A is for "Acceptance" – of everyone, but especially the unpopular, the geeky & the hurting.
T is for "Transparency" – don't be afraid to admit that you don't have all the answers & that life confuses you sometimes too.
I is for "Involvement" – young people should do 90% of talking; which means you should do 90% of the listening.
O is for "Outreach" – pray for nonbelievers & constantly talk about friendship evangelism.
N is for "Numerical Growth" – would new people feel welcome in your group? If your group isn't growing in numbers, be brave & ask "why not"?
S is for "Spiritual Growth" – talk about faith, not just football, shopping & X-Factor.
H is for "Home-like" – when you haven't seen a young person in a while say "Welcome back" not "Where you have been?"
I is for "Integrity" – try to be consistent with young people.
P is for "Professional" – be aware of parents' perceptions.
S is for "Strategic" – if you don't see a young person for a while, send them a letter or give them a call.
I'm off to try & practice what I preach.

Brad and Angelina Go Public—Again!
Plus, Jessica Simpson's deflating butt and more from this week's gossip magazines.
Brad and Angelina go public! Again. And with no new pictures. All the tabs note that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie flew to Arizona for the weekend, on the heels of Jennifer Aniston's bombshell Vanity Fair interview. Us Weekly calls their trip a "low-key getaway," but In Touch's headline blares: "Brad and Angelina go public!" (The two mags also offer conflicting accounts of what the pair ate for dinner: In Touch says fish tacos for him, fajitas for her; Us says fajitas for him, taquitos for her.) Meanwhile, the tabs work to scrounge up some kind of Pitt-camp response to Aniston's tearful interview. Us has "a Pitt source" saying, "Jen is trying to make him look bad when she was the neurotic one. … The truth is, he couldn't tolerate her anymore and he had to get out."
Tom Cruise meets the parents.
During a visit with fiancée Katie Holmes' mom and dad, "Tom apparently got excited while explaining Scientology and questioning Catholicism," Star reports. "Naturally, this would upset the Holmeses."
Jessica Simpson's butt deflates. Is Simpson still married to Nick Lachey? Who cares! (Though for what it's worth, the Enquirer says the forever- Newlyweds are "Back on track,"Us Weekly says they're "Still strong," and Life & Style says they may get divorced after Dukes of Hazzard leaves theaters.) It's the Star's cover story that addresses the truly crucial question: Is Simpson's butt getting flatter? The Editor's Letter—which contains two uses of the phrase "plump rump"—boasts of "a Star investigation" that yielded "riveting results." Those results include a "Tush Timeline" (italics theirs) that assesses historical photos of Simpson's backside. In every shot except for this Dukes promotional photo, Star concludes that her butt is flat. So what's the "highly likely" story? "'If you want to pad your butt for a movie, there are spandex shorts [also known as butt shorts] that have pads on the butt,'" a celebrity stylist reveals. Star notes, "They'll even fit under Daisy Dukes!"
Ben Affleck attends church.
According to the Star, the actor, who recently wed Jennifer Garner, "stunned the faithful" in an Idaho church by standing up during prayer services and saying, "My name is Ben Affleck and this is my wife, Jennifer, from Los Angeles!"
Eddie Murphy divorces. All the tabs report that Murphy has divorced his wife, Nicole Mitchell, but they don't have too much to say about it. (Though everyone does mention the 1997 incident in which Murphy was pulled over with a transsexual hooker in his car.) People acquits itself best, digging up a relative of Nicole's who denies that adultery was a problem. The most ridiculous stretch? The Star writes, "Giving us some insight into the marriage breakdown, Eddie said in 1993 ..."
Matt LeBlanc opens up. The Enquirer must have something good on Matt LeBlanc, because the married Joey star sits down for a contrite photo session and interview in which he explains how he came to be groping a stripper in Canada. "The stripper was all over me," he says. "I was pretty drunk. … I could not wait to get home."Critics are calling the tale "improbable."
OK! magazine debuts.
British celebrity magazine OK! launched its American version last week with Jessica Simpson on the cover. OK! stands out from the tabloid pack by having a larger trim size and a total lack of integrity. The New York Times reported that the magazine "lets celebrities approve what is printed about them, as Ms. Simpson did with her interview and photos." Meeting Ms. Simpson's approval was the following caption: "The starlet with her perfect husband, Nick." Such stuff quickly becomes unreadable: Consider these preludes to questions for Vivica A. Fox: "You were fabulous in Kill Bill. ..."; "Your home is stunning. ..."; "Your bathroom is incredible. ..."
The National Enquirer remains refreshingly vicious.
On a page that rounds up "celebrity freaks," the Enquirer runs a picture of Matthew Perry, who is missing part of his right middle finger. The caption? "Hey Stumpy!" The caption for an unflattering photo of Tara Reid? "Tara Reid's got cellulite ... Ha ha ha ha!!!"

7 June 2017
Highlands & Islands Regional MSP David Stewart has written to Stagecoach Bus after it transpired at a recent Lochaber Transport Forum meeting that disabled people were having issues accessing or finding space on buses within the Fort William area
David said, "Transport should be accessible for everyone. It's good for the economy and means fewer car journeys, which reduces carbon emissions. Disabled people should be treated fairly and in parity with all others.
"It is my understanding that buses or coaches may need to meet the Public Service Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 2000 (PVSAR) allowing access on the vehicle for disabled passengers.
"Whether the vehicle has to meet the regulations depends on its size, age and purpose.
"Only buses that can carry 22 passengers or more have to comply with the regulations.
"There is a timetable for these regulations to phase the development for bus companies.
"Obviously I am concerned to hear that some disabled people in and around Fort William have experienced difficulty with access to some Stagecoach Buses, so I have written to the Area Manager of Stagecoach Bus to ascertain what the current position is with disability access buses used in and around the Fort William area."
David continued, " Where space on a bus is set aside for a wheel chair user, then they have priority over a pushchair which may be situated on that space.
"Once I have ascertained the current position from Stagecoach Bus I will make contact with the Lochaber Transport Forum and update them."

School Prevention Program Enters 13th Year
A total of 28,575 local students have been reached through the Jefferson CAC's School Prevention Program since it began in 2002. This school year, 333 students in the 1st-3rd grades at Boudreaux Elementary have already gone through the program, with another 600 students scheduled this week at Terrytown Elementary.
"Upon showing the DVD, I talk with the kids about listening to their body signals, when they are uncomfortable about something. We talk about public versus private body parts and the difference between safe, unsafe, secret and confusing touch. We also cover a little bit about internet and electronic safety, as well as the three rules for protecting themselves from unsafe touches," School Prevention Program Coordinator, Ashley Ditta said, emphasizing that the class is not a sex education class, but instead a class about body safety and abuse prevention.
Because parents are key to keeping their children safe, Ditta stated that parental involvement is welcomed.
"It would be great if they could see if they can get their children to reiterate what they've learned and follow up with family specific discussion. I would also like to see more parent participation in the program. We do invite parents to attend with their kids," Ashley explained.
Ditta said that while the program has reached a large number of children, there is still a need for schools to continue offering body safety information.
"A lot of the kids indicate on the evaluations that this is information that they have never seen before," according to Ditta.
Ashley stated that when she visits schools, there is often one part of her presentation that goes over surprisingly well.
"Students love the DVD. It's as old as can be, very basic and very silly, but the kids love it."
In addition to the DVD, Ditta also uses verbal discussions and coloring pages in her presentations, making them as kid-friendly and age-appropriate as possible.

Billing in India has been a very simple process when compared to western markets. The concept so far has been two fold: Vendor raises a bill for the amount they deem to have provided service for (correctly or incorrectly). Customers then chose to either, pay (on time or otherwise) or ignore the bill altogether.
As companies become more and more technology savvy in India, it becomes imperative to come up with sophisticated solutions to the billing and collections problem. More importantly, there will be a change in the way companies do business. For example, in the 70's and 80's in India people bought homes with their life's savings. They toiled hard for years and saved up money with the goal of having their OWN roof over their heads, rather than staying in rented accommodation. The opening up of the Indian economy in the 1990's combined with the availability of credit has gradually changed this BEHAVIOR in people. It has resulted in the average age of the first time home owner going down drastically and more and more people owning the own homes.
This similar type of behavior will soon be seen as companies start to tweak their revenue models to be able to sell their products to a much larger audience. In the technology space, the Apple App store set the ball rolling to revolutionized how million dollar companies got created. No longer were people selling expensive software, but instead charging $1 (or even less in some cases) to customers who were willing to risk this money to try out a product. Then came the monthly recurring fee models where a small amount is charged regularly for the use of a product.
The above mentioned changes will soon become the norm in India where a tech friendly youth has the disposable income to try/buy products and this will help companies reach a much wider audience than they normally could.

The beavers have been doing sports for the Olympics and working on different activities for the Jubilee. The beavers have worked on making fridge magnets, cards, black and white drawings, and other fun things for the Jubilee. The beavers have enjoyed doing this because they have got to do creative activities and work together to make cards. The beavers have also done lots of sporting activities whilst taking part in mini competitions with the other people. The beavers have developed their teamwork skills because they have helped each other with their different sports e.g. teaching each other how to play football.
In cubs they have been working on their DIY badge. For this they have had to build a birdhouse and a bird feeder. The evenings were very loud as the cubs had to learn how to use the different tools and then they built the different bird accessories. The cubs have also had a games night, in which the cubs got to pick the games and then they played them. The cubs enjoyed the DIY badge. One of the cubs said "this is really hard but so fun". This cub built most of their bird house and then brought it back to cubs the next week finished and painting. The cubs have learnt DIY skills which will help them when they are building something. Also, the cubs have worked together to help build the bird houses and feeders because one held the wood whist the other banged the nails in. The cubs have worked really hard on this badge and they only need to do some painting before they can gain their badge.
The scouts and explorers have worked on map reading in May. They went on a small hike on a Friday night so that the younger scouts and the new explorers could learn how to read the map. The scouts and a few explorers took part in a district tug of war. The scouts did well in this competition and did the best they could. The scouts then took part in a jubilee party in which they went to different stools run by the different groups and play old fashioned games that were played when the queen was crowned. The 50th ran croquet and shove halfpenny. Most of the scouts that game to the stall did not know what these games were! The explorers have taught the scouts how to read the map, what the different symbols on the map are, and how to do4 and 6 figure grid references.
Join me again in June.

Finally arrived in Malaysia!! After flying to Krabi it took 7hrs to get to Kangar in northern Malaysia the next morning we went to Gua Kelum for a day and then went to check out the amazing crag at Bukit Keteri.
One of the best 7b+ on the planet i think.
This was developed in January 07 by a Mammut team and is well worth the visit after another days climbing it was off to Tonsai and it hasnt disapointed. The first morning at Tonsai and an afternoon at Railey east i flashed the easiest 8a on the planet "Call Me Helmut", the next day we went deepwater soloing,
nothing hard but some good airtime was had.
Today i ticked a couple of 8a+'s on Tonsai beach and came really close to the os only to fall trying to bridge into a no hands rest!!! As for tomorrow more of the same i think. Hopefully i will have some pics up soon. See you on the Beach.

Exhibition, Surry Hills, Sydney
like a god I watched
the exact prism of her being
from such a height;
she was luminescent
and throwing sparks
though inside I could see
her talent for shadows
and pitch black.
light begins again
coming in ocean dark blue
in buckling mouths
in the citys underwater sobs
in fires brute weather
cant extinguish
in the steel and wire bridge
of our leitmotif.
whatever I imagine is true
so she bends towards me
her hands knowing
all the ways home
finding out the colours
of my unknowable code.
pulling winter weeds
the soil shakes loose
while on our knees
and the edifice comes free
of a winter we cant keep
it falls yellow around us
its even in our hair
and eyes after the rain
which was warm enough
infused with green light
and Im in pieces
small enough to hold
and this moment
has no parenthesis
from Poems in Reverse
[xv. untitled fire painting]
names are lost
between the thumb and forefinger
of early morning
all i hear is heavy weather,
syncopation, Scriabins fifth sonata
which she hammers
inside my ribs
that brute, that mystic
with his endless backwards phrases
it starts from nothing
when i am face down and refracted
in a basin of cold water
life suspended in that moment
between Slessors Five Bells
and the harbour lights
tossing their fireballs wearily
to the point where flames intersect
and what now do i know of her
as she looks from the window
seeing the orange halflight of geometry
and two empty chairs
where sleep is a handle i grip
and swing like an axe
then lose in the fire
the house is dark
i am four thousand
miles east of here
searching for words
i find them still in her mouth
then in Rimbauds letter
of 1871 to Paul Demeny
that you should not read at 3AM :
Donc le poète est vraiment voleur de feu

Meet our newest Tonnesen Team member, baby Mia!
Posted by Mastura Zaini-Roberts on Saturday, March 29th, 2014 at 12:01pm.
We'd like to formally introduce you to our brand new "team member" Mia Johnson, daughter of Las Vegas Realtor Brandon Johnson and his wife Alicia, who was born on March 27th at 10:02 pm weighing in at 8 pounds even. We believe in training our agents right from the cradle, so Mia will be able to show homes, write contracts and negotiate deals by the age of five (though she will require a chauffeur until age 16 when she gets her driver's license.)
In addition, we expect Mia to be on the Pro Golf tour as her dad Brandon is a golf afficionado and expert player in his own right - when he has the time. (Not that he has too much time for golf lately. He has been WAY too busy with his real estate clients, though his current buyers were nice enough to let him miss a home inspection while Mia was being born.)
Congratulations to the proud mom and dad, and welcome to the world, Mia. We have a desk waiting just for you. But if you need to buy or sell real estate before Mia is ready, remember to ask for her dad, Brandon. Baby needs new shoes!
***Just as a side note, Mia was born on Team Manager Patty Annis' birthday. Last year Patty's youngest grandson was also born on her birthday. So March 27th is a pretty big day around the Tonnesen Team!

Searching for a specific piece of information on the Internet can be a taxing affair. This is not due to the difficulty in searching of relevant information but more to do with finding the specific one from the maze of info displayed on the screen. As the Internet makes its inexorable march into every corner of the globe thereby touching every profession in its vast sweep, making one's business to take advantage of this opportunity is the real challenge. The challenge mainly lies in the way web traffic is required to be drawn in favour of a website in spite of having plenty of competition. And the way to trump one's business rivals by cornering a slice of the web traffic depends on how the tool of Search Engine Optimization is put to use.
What is Search Engine Optimization or SEO?
When customers search for information on the Internet they use websites called search engines, namely Google, Baidu, Yahoo, Bing, AOL et al. The search engines, on their part, find the relevant information as queried by making an index of websites that feature the information. Furthermore, the indexed websites are displayed on screen based upon their rankings. Thus, a high ranked site will appear on the first display page of one's screen.
Search Engine Optimization is the process of ensuring a website remains high on the ranking quotient and be displayed likewise whenever a query pertaining to the website is typed on the search engine. This process can often be the reason why a website stays on the Internet as mere clutter or becomes a magnet for web traffic.
Why is Search Engine Optimization important for businesses?
In today's competitive times, mere building of a website to register one's presence on the web is not enough, for making it appear high on search engine listings should be the ultimate goal. There are plenty of companies dealing with Search Engine Optimization in India leading to the following objectives.
Visibility: SEO helps one's business website to appear in the first search page listing, thus helping it to gain visibility in the eyes of customers. If scores of visitors get the website in their query listings, there is likelihood of people visiting the site. Although, mere listing of a business website in the first page of a search query does not guarantee traffic, it is however many times better placed to attract a semblance of traffic than the one listed on subsequent pages.
Better advertising: Instead of advertising one's business on TV, hoardings or newspapers, it makes sense to use the services of a company dealing in Search Engine Optimization in India to let the website gain a high search listing. This is because customers searching for specific business info are already attuned to your business objectives, and it is just a matter of time they find your site relevant.
Reputation: A business located in a remote city corner is less likely to gain customers' trust than the one present in a prime location. This is due to the fact that in the perception battle, the location of a business does matter. Similarly, if one's website features high on search engine listings, it will carry more credibility or gain better reputation.
Customers' browsing info: One can use tools like Google Analytics to study online customer behaviour, that is, their browsing habits, backgrounds, query details etc. These can come handy in better targeting of advertisements or to fine tune one's products to suit customers' requirements.
Return on Investment (ROI): Spending on building a website followed by using Search Engine Optimization entails better ROI as opposed to advertising through traditional means.
The above mentioned objectives make SEO a must for a business to succeed online.

The Mets are re-signing Fernando Salas to a one-year deal:
Source: #Mets bringing back free-agent reliever Fernando Salas. Deal will be pending physical.
— Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) February 3, 2017
Salas was acquired by the Mets last year from the Angels in exchange for two minor-league players. Last season with the Angels he posted very average results, logging a 4.47 ERA. He also served as the Angels closer for a brief time, logging 6 saves. If he would've stayed as the closer, I would've won my Rotisserie lead and be way richer right now. But of course he didn't because God hates me.
More importantly, the fact that he has closing experience makes him an option to fill in for Jeurys Familia whenever the MLB hands down his suspension for being a really bad guy.

Palm Beach County commissioners on Tuesday banned wading, fishing and swimming by people or their pets around Boynton Inlet.
``DANGER HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS`` will be on signs posted around the forbidden areas on both the north and south sides of the inlet jetty.
The ordinance takes effect within two weeks, as soon as it is filed with the Secretary of State, said county beach erosion control director Bob Clinger.
The measure is intended to prevent a repeat of the tragedies that have taken place at the treacherous inlet, including three drownings in two years and several near misses.
``The more the public is warned, the better chance we have of avoiding drownings,`` said Chuck Potter, chairman of the South Lake Worth Inlet District Commission.
Violators could face a jail term and a $500 fine.
On the inlet`s north side, the roped-off area will extend 200 feet toward the east into the Atlantic Ocean. It will ban swimmers from coming within 75 feet of the curving jetty wall, to keep them away from an intake station that pulls in sand and shifts it to the south side of the inlet.
South of the inlet, signs will be posted warning swimmers to stay at least 30 feet away from the discharge pipe of the sand transfer system. There will be no rope.
Natural currents move sand from north to south all along the coast. The transfer plant prevents erosion below the inlet by sending the northside sand through a slurry pipe to the south side, where currents can distribute it further south.

A political crisis has divided
Fear of being caught in the cross-fire, insecurity and a major food crisis have driven more than 300,000 Malians to flee the country for neighboring nations. "Many are terrified and ready to leave everything behind to escape violence," says Marie-Christine Férir, MSF emergency coordinator.
The refugees, coming mostly from
Providing basic healthcare
In order to respond to the needs of vulnerable people, MSF is supporting health centres in
Water, a rare and precious commodity
Refugees do not have sufficient access to potable water. This is especially the case in the desert areas of
Treating and preventing malnutrition
The refugees depend solely on humanitarian aid for essential supplies like food. Still, there is not enough milk nor appropriate food for mothers to feed their children. "Rice can relieve hunger but can not replace the nutrients children need. Elements such as proteins, fats, vitamins, carbohydrates and minerals are essential for the growth and development of a child." says Férir. In
Facing epidemics
Protecting children from measles is another health priority in the camps where MSF is working. In these places, where people live in disorder and children suffer from chronic malnutrition, a measles epidemic could be devastating. MSF has vaccinated more than 10,000 children since March with the support of the health authorities. Cholera cases have been documented in Namarigoungou and Bonfeba in
The vulnerability of the refugees' situation and the coming rainy season will increase the risk of epidemics like malaria and cholera. On top of that, the "hunger gap" that begins in the month of July always sees an increase in malnutrition cases. The refugees will have to face the double burden of malnutrition and malaria.
In the Sikasso region of Mali, MSF teams are also running pædiatric and nutrition activities in five health centres and the Koutiala hospital. In addition to curative activities, MSF is working on the prevention of major childhood diseases. In the north, MSF is working in a Timbuktu hospital and provides care in villages in the Timbuktu, Kidal and Mopti regions.

How to Deal with Rejection Letters
The world of writing has a dark side that no one likes to talk about. It's vicious and twisted and can do untold damage to sensitive (and even not so sensitive) souls. What's worse is that there is no escaping it. If you want to be a professional writer you will have to overcome the horror of The Rejection Letter.
No one likes to be rejected. It's difficult to accept that something about you or something that you've done has been deemed unacceptable or unworthy in some way. It hurts. It makes you question your talent, your worth, even yourself. It's particularly bad when you've poured your heart and soul into a book that you feel is as near to perfection as anything can ever be.
Most writers feel that way about their first book.
Unfortunately, publishers rarely do. And that's where the little envelopes of pain come enter the picture.
It doesn't matter how kindly-worded the letter, how constructive and helpful the criticism, or how encouraging the tone, rejection letters can feel like the end of the world.
They're not.
It sounds trite, but it's true. Rejection letters aren't the end of the world. And, even though it is a cliché, you can learn a lot from each rejection that you get. But that doesn't help you cope with the immediate aftermath, so here's some advice that should.
Matt Moore makes perfect sense when he says that rejection letters kick off the natural grieving process. Grief is related to loss and you experience black holes filled with loss when your work is rejected.
As you may or may not know, Elisabeth Kübler-Ross defined the five stages of grief in her book On Death and Dying, which was published way back in 1969. It's not a perfect process (the model has been quite severely criticised by some) and it's not linear, but very little that has to do with the mind is perfect or linear, so that's ok.
The important thing to remember is that it's ok to feel any or all of the following:
1) Denial
How could it be rejected? It's wonderful, a masterpiece. It can't be true. You reread the letter a dozen times hoping that the words will be different. They're not.
2) Anger
How dare they reject you? You're wonderful, a master. They're ignoramuses who've not understood the brilliance of your work. They've not appreciated the horror/humour/irony/insight – whatever. The point is, they are idiots and they will pay.
Sometimes anger is directed internally rather than externally, especially for those sensitive souls already mentioned. If you are a sensitive soul and tend to be excessively hard on yourself, you need to find healthy coping mechanisms – and you need to do it now.
3) Bargaining
Maybe if I change that character, maybe if I change that location, maybe if I change rework the ending, maybe if I get a new proofreader – all the maybes in the world enter your mind. Some of them may be (ahem) valid, but don't make any rash changes to your story, yet. Get yourself through the process so that you can look at your work objectively. Besides, an acceptance letter could be on the way and then all your worry is for nothing.
4) Depression
At this point you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are a terrible writer. You're wasting your time and everyone else's time. You should apply for that position as a toll booth operator immediately because being published is clearly not in your destiny.
And, even if you're not a terrible writer, no one will ever appreciate your work. No one will ever give you a chance. The industry is all about nepotism and teenage vampires and you're not willing to sink that low.
It's important to note that while depression is normal, it's not normal for it to last a long time. If you're depressed for more than a week, think about seeing your doctor.
5) Acceptance
You know what? It's not that bad really. There are plenty of other publishers you can try. Your work has promise. You have promise. And if this book never gets published, well, there is always the next one.
The thing is
The thing about grief is that it's intensely personal. Some people go through all of the stages in a straight line. Some people jump from denial to depression, back to denial and into acceptance, before going back to denial again. Some people zoom through the stages in three hours, and some people take a week.
If you're stuck in any of the stages though, or can't seem to find your way out of a grief cycle, then, as advised, get professional help.
Alternatively, you can build up your resilience to rejection using the following tools:
- Meditation
Cultivate peace of mind. Make it a habit and you will be able to return to that calm state after periods of emotional upheaval. The stronger the habit, the less disruptive the upheaval and the quicker your journey through the grieving process.
It may sound happy-clappy, but it works.
- Violence
Definitely NOT violence towards others or yourself. Repeat: definitely NOT violence towards others or yourself. Find a rough and sweaty boxing gym and pummel a punching bag. Take some lessons so that you know what you're doing and don't frustrate yourself further. Once again, make it a habit. Let off steam regularly and you won't have so much emotional build up waiting to erupt at the slightest provocation.
- Friend therapy
Build a strong social circle. A real one, not one on Facebook. You need people with whom you can physically meet to share a meal or a drink. You need to rant and you need to laugh. Good friends will help you do both. They will support you and, when you need it, they will give you a kick in the pants to get you back on your feet.
- Hair of the dog
If you consider that the remedy involves taking a little of what ails you to cure you, then the best thing for you to do is write. It can be a strongly-worded letter refuting the rejection (don't send it, whatever you do!) or it can be a collection of limericks. You can try something new; for example, you could write a fantasy short story if your forte lies in romantic poetry. But, only do this as a mental exercise and don't do it if you know you'll get frustrated and angry.
- Take it easy
Don't embark on any major new projects until you've settled down. Pamper yourself a little. Pampering doesn't have to involve expensive spa treatments and fine dining at five-star restaurants. It could be as simple as soaking in a hot bath or watching some ducks swimming in a pond. It could be getting up early to watch the sunrise from the beach. You know what brings you joy – pamper yourself by finding it.
Remember that you are not alone. All writers get rejected, even the greats. Kenneth Atchity wrote a great article on dealing with rejection, in which he says that Elmore Leonard's novel The Big Bounce was rejected 84 times before it was finally accepted and published.
If Leonard could cope with 84 letters of rejection, so can you.

The history of diamond cutting officially began in the middle ages when diamonds became fashionable in Europe. This diagram illustrates the six most popular antique diamond cuts throughout history.
1300 Early Point Cuts
The very first diamonds were found in India and kept as loose unpolished stones. They were considered sacred objects that were believed to have possessed magical powers. Not until the 11th century were diamonds worn in jewelry but still in an uncut form. Initial diamond cutting began in the 14th century but at that time it was likely very superficial type of polishing of the stone in order to give it some shine. Initially there was the point cut, which followed the natural shape of the diamond. Diamonds were very rare and were only worn by kings and queens.
1400 Point & Table Cuts
The table cut was the first major faceting technique to be used. Followed by the step cut. The precursor to the emerald cut diamond, which wouldn't be called that until the 1940s. It was during the 15th century that it was discovered that diamonds could be cut by their own dust!
In 1477 Mary of Burgundy became the first to receive a diamond engagement ring which was gifted to her by Archduke Maximilian of Austria. The ring was set with a point cut diamond and thin flat pieces of diamonds in the shape of an "M". It is likely that the tradition of the diamond engagement ring really began with this event.
1500 Early Rose Cuts
In the 16th century tools were invented to cut facets into diamonds. The rose cut and transition cut were added to the diamond cutter's repertoire. It was at this time that early bruting, faceting, and polishing of diamonds began to be used by European cutters.
Until this time most of the diamond trade took place in India. As cutting techniques matured, diamonds began to take on a new perception and demand grew but they were still rare and would continue to be until the discovery of African mines in the late 19th century.
With just 24 facets, the subtle beauty of rose cut diamonds is that they impart a soft diffused light rather then the bright light of the modern brilliant cut. The most significant trait of rose cut diamonds is that they are flat at the bottom and dome shaped at the top. Unlike other diamonds which have culets and tables.
1700 Rose & Rise of Old Mine Cushion Cuts
The early 18th century saw a rise of diamond production in Brazil and the coming of new rounded or cushion shaped diamonds. The most significant being the old mine cushion.
Old mine cut diamonds, also known as a cushion cuts, are basically the great-grandfathers of modern brilliant cuts. Developed in 18th century Europe, these cuts were not round but had a slightly curved edge which formed a soft square. They were made with a variety of facet patterns but always with a small table, high crown, and larger culet, giving them an architectural look.
Diamonds continued to be rare during the Georgian era and only worn by aristocracy. In the mid 18th century King Louis XV of France commissioned his court jeweler to create a diamond cut to reflect the shape of the mouth of his mistress Madame de Pompadour! This cut was the marquise cut, also known as the navette cut.
1800 Rose and Old Mine Cushion
The Early and Middle Victorian era saw the use of mostly old mine cushion cuts in jewelry. Invention of the bruting machine, steam-driven brutting machine, and motorized saw in the late 1800s revolutionized diamond cutting. These tools enabled cutters to precisely shape rounder and more brilliant diamonds. These new techniques gave rise to the old European and English round cuts, both of which have a total of 58 facets same as today's round brilliant cuts.
In the mid to late 19th century the official diamond rush began with the discovery mines in South Africa. The ancient craft of diamond cutting had emerged as a modern industry. De Beers owned mostly all of these mines as the De Beers Mining Company.
1900 Old European & Asscher Cuts
Invented by the Royal Asscher Diamond Company in 1902 the Asscher cut didn't gain popularity until the Art Deco era in the 1920s. This diamond is one of the very first patented diamond cuts in the world.
Classic asscher cut diamonds are cut into squares and resemble emerald cuts which are rectangular. But asscher cut diamonds have larger step facets, a higher crown, and a smaller table. Be careful, often people ask for asscher cuts they are just getting square emerald cuts.
The corners are cropped which give the shape an octagonal appearance. The asscher is typically more brilliant then it's cousin the emerald cut. Asscher cut diamonds from the 1920s and 1930s are very rare.
1920 Old European Gained in Popularity
Diamond engagement rings gained in popularity during the Art Deco era and the round old European cut diamond was the favorite.
Old european cuts have a round girdle, meaning they appear round from the top view as opposed to the earlier old mine cut which had a more squared off top view. Like the old mine cut, the old european has a high crown, small table, and open culet. Notice the culet in the diagram below. Instead of coming to a perfect point, it is cut straight across so that it is flat at the bottom.
Old European cut diamonds have facets that are thick triangular blocks as opposed to modern round brilliant cuts which have thinner facets.
1930 Emerald Cut
The term emerald cut was born at this time and replaced the earlier table cut and step cuts.
Emerald cut diamonds have a dramatic hall of mirrors effect. Descended from the step cut, emerald cuts were standardized in the 1940s. The step cut emerged as one of the first faceted diamond cuts, third in line after the point cut and the table cut. In the step cut the shape of the rough diamond usually dictated the position and placement of the facets, allowing to maximize the carat weight of the final gem. Usually these had larger crowns and smaller tables.
1940 Modern Brilliant Cuts
The most infamous tag line was invented by De Beers in 1947, "A Diamond Is Forever"! Slowly over time old European and transition cut diamonds gave way to the modern brilliant cut, which continues to dominate to this day.

From the Martin County Sheriff's Office: Following extensive search efforts with more than 60-people yesterday, the Martin County Sheriff's Office has suspended the ground search for 30-year old Tricia Todd. Investigative efforts will continue, however, unless new information comes to light, ground assets will be scaled back.
Teams conducted a grid search and re-checked many areas in Hobe Sound concentrating efforts from Bridge Road south to JD State Park. Personnel from the Martin County Sheriffs Office, thirty five crime scene students from Keiser Crime Scene Investigations Academy, and crime scene investigators from Ft. Pierce worked to cover a large area in hopes of finding clues in Tricia's disappearance. ATV's, MCSO Air1, and four wheel drive vehicles were used in the search.
Although ground efforts have been suspended, we remain dedicated to finding Tricia and will continue all investigative efforts.

Microarrays in microfluidic structures
The combination of microarrays and microfluidics offers great potential to integrate multiplexing in Lab-on-Chip approaches, thus enabling fully automated multiplex diagnostics in the clinical laboratory and Point of Care applications.
SCIENION's contact-less sciFLEXARRAYER technology is ideally suited to manufacture microarrays in microfluidic structures.
Microfluidic chips are made of special polymer materials and of complex geometries, making traditional routes for biofunctionalization chemistry very challenging. SCIENION's sciPOLY3D approach enables straightforward and robust immobilization of unmodified probe biomolecules on unmodified microfluidic substrates.

Well, the chickens seem to be recovering from their bout with fowl pox and Ethel, one of our Barred Rock hens, is showing signs that she is ready to lay an egg!
Anyway – I thought I would share some pictures of our winter garden. We've become pros at growing lettuce (Romaine, Red Sails, Buttercrunch etc) and are enjoying tons of fresh salads. Lettuce loves the cool wet weather that Austin has been blessed with recently. Our plants are in full sun, but we have also done well with lettuce planted in partial shade. The netting helps keep the chickens away and as a bonus limits the amount of pecans our backyard squirrels can bury in the garden. They are tenacious with those nuts!
We are also growing some cole crops – broccoli, kale, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and kohlrabi. These are also growing in full sun, but do really well in partial shade. I'm so excited about the brussels sprouts – we've never grown these before but they are one of my favorite vegetables!
Kohlrabi is a new vegetable for us but has thus far been fairly easy to grow. For me – it's the cooking part that's challenging. I tried a kohlrabi fritter recipe a few weeks ago that was pretty tasty, but what else does one do with a kohlrabi?
I started the cauliflower from seed and although the plants are almost 12 weeks old – they're still tiny! All my attempts this year to start things from seed have failed. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any seed success stories out there?

NoDa is known as the arts district in Charlotte, but in recent years, it's become a pretty heavily frequented neighborhood for the food, beer and good times. I'm sure it's not just because I moved to the 'hood, either.
On Thursday, March 8, Yelp kicks off its Passport to NoDa, a 10-day neighborhood spotlight encouraging folks to come hang out. While there will be shopping and good times, if you're reading this on Eat My Charlotte, you're more concerned about the food and drinks, am I right?
First off, you should definitely head out to the jump-off event on Thursday, a food truck rally, from 5 p.m.-9 p.m. Twelve food trucks will be hanging out in different parts of the neighborhood, including The Chop Shop and The Dog Bar. (More info here.)
Sunday, March 11 will be Brew Day, where you can take tours of NoDa Brewing and Birdsong Brewery. (Read more here.)
On Tuesday, March 13, sample bites at some of your favorite NoDa restaurants during a progressive dinner. The four locations are Cabo Fish Taco, Crepe Cellar, Revolution Pizza and Tasty Yo — all delish spots! You can expect to pay $5-$10 at each location, which includes an alcoholic or nonalcoholic drink, and you must RSVP.
To read up all of the shenanigans, good times and offers associated with Yelo's Passport to NoDa, click here.
Fox Charlotte has the business: Check out this video.
